The BBC radio ads I heard for this a few weeks ago had me cringeing ("John Luther is a detective who bends the rules - but gets the job done" or somesuch) but due to Idris Elba's stellar turn in 'The Wire' the least I could do was give it a go.
I'm rather glad I did. I've seen about three of the series and they've been fairly enjoyable. As ever a little suspension of disbelief doesn't go amiss but Elba makes a very watchable central figure and the stories have been well paced and engaging enough.
Not bad, all told.
